OPPO FIND X2 PRO
Elegant design & 120 Hz display
Design is a matter of taste, but the OPPO Find X2 Pro is clearly one of the more elegant smartphones. Little frills make the smartphone a real eye-catcher. Well, there are a few frills. If you choose the black model, the back is made of scratch-resistant ceramic. The model in orange is covered with synthetic leather. In accordance with protection class IP68, the housing is protected against water and dust.
The 6,7-inch AMOLED display, which is curved towards the edges, has a resolution of 1440 × 3168 pixels. Thanks to its 10-bit color depth, the screen can display up to 1,07 billion colors and covers the P3 color space 100 percent. Added to this is the support of the HDR10 + standard and an outstanding display brightness of 1200 nit. One of the key features, however, is the 120 Hz refresh rate. The display is not only razor-sharp, but also presents content extremely smoothly. The sampling rate is 240 Hz so that the inputs made via the touchscreen keep up.
Those who like to use their smartphone for video playback will get their money's worth with the Find X2 Pro. The O1 Ultra Vision Engine Chip is installed, which spices up the video playback with various technologies. Motion Clear, a motion compensation technology, makes videos appear much smoother. HDR video enhancers also let non-HDR material appear in HDR gloss. Dolby Atmos creates dynamic stereo sound with a sense of depth and bass. In the DisplayMate test, the display received the grade A +!
Periscope camera with Sony IMX689 sensor
There is a system of three cameras and an LED flash on the back of the smartphone. The main wide-angle module is the 48 MP Sony IMX686 with Quad Bayer technology. A 13 MP telephoto sensor with periscope function and a 48 MP ultra-wide-angle sensor (Sony IMX586) are also available. This combination makes the OPPO Find X2 Pro one of the best camera smartphones currently available. In the camera test by DxOMark the smartphone could even climb to number 1. The 32 MP front camera is discreetly embedded in the display.
The main camera can be adorned with numerous features. An omnidirectional phase autofocus (PDAF) enables lightning-fast and extremely precise focusing. The "12 Bit True Capture" technology gives recordings 4.096 tone values per RGB channel, which ensures an excellent dynamic range. Loss-free zooming is possible thanks to the hybrid zoom with 10x magnification. Image details can even be enlarged 60 times digitally. A combination of optical and electronic image stabilization (OIS + EIS) helps against shaky video recordings. Speaking of videos. The Find X2 Pro records videos at maximum 4K resolution at up to 60 frames per second.
Snapdragon 865 & SuperVOOC 2.0
The core is the eight-core Qualcomm Snapdragon 865 processor. This high-end processor is future-proof and will continue to provide decent performance for the next few years. The memory equipment includes 12 GB RAM (LPDDR5) and 512 GB data storage (UFS 3.0). The X55 modem of the Snapdragon 865 enables extensive 4G and 5G cellular communications. The Find X2 Pro can also score points in WLAN thanks to Wi-Fi 6. In a Wi-Fi 6 compatible network, double the connection speed and reduced latency is possible.
The smartphone also has Bluetooth 5.1, a Type-C port for charging and connecting headphones and NFC for contactless payment. The operating system is ColorOS 7.1, which is based on Android 10. The battery has a capacity of 4200 mAh. The SuperVOOC 2.0 fast charging function charges the smartphone with up to 65 watts. The result is a full battery in just under 40 minutes. Wireless Qi charging is missing. A fingerprint scanner is hidden under the display for secure unlocking.

OPPO Find X2
The Find X2 is a slightly slimmed down version of the Find X2 Pro. With a purchase price of €1000 and therefore a price difference of €200, it is still not a “savings model”. Compared to the Pro version, there are mainly savings in the camera. Instead of the price camera and the Sony IMX689 image sensor, a 3-sensor combination with a 48 MP Sony IMX586 wide angle, a 12 MP Sony IMX708 ultra wide angle and a 13 MP telephoto sensor is installed.
Interested parties also have to do without the orange-colored synthetic leather cover. Instead there is the Find X2 in Ocean Blue, made of glass. The water protection according to IP68 is missing! There is another difference in the memory configuration. 12GB RAM is also available, but the data storage has been reduced to 256GB.

assessment
Let's be honest. Who would buy a smartphone from an unknown manufacturer for more than 1000 euros? Because especially if you are not concerned with smartphones, OPPO is guaranteed to be a foreign word. The hardware may keep up with other high-end smartphones from Samsung and Co., in some cases even superior, but with this asking price, OPPO will at least find only a few buyers on the European market at this time.
Both smartphones will be available in Germany from the beginning of May at a recommended retail price of 999 euros or 1.199 euros (pro).

I'm curious to see how well Oppo tuned the IMX686. The Redmi K30 also installed the sensor, but miserably adapted it. Endless image defects, chromatic aberration and and and.

The software plays an important role today. Take a look at the Pixel smartphones. Especially the night mode. What they get out of their software is amazing. I don't know anything about OPPO, but what you read sounds promising. In terms of market share in Asia, we are not dealing with any Hinterwald smartphone manufacturer.

I never said that. But you can see that even large corporations like Xiaomi find it difficult to optimize the sensor.

Sensor or not. Would like to know how the camera beats a Mi 10 Pro. I give nothing on the DxO test. They are clearly bought.
